A nice duo of HLCX SD40-2s bring F768 into Monroe on a freezing January mosning. Lease power has made a comeback on CSX and is truly nice to catch these units that offer variety and less common paint jobs.

CSX Q365

The colors on the HLCX are fitting. Look at the primered CSX unit.........KCS wannabe, maybe???????

The leased unit in American Colors & the CSX 5228 looks almost like a KCS unit!!!
